MEDARVA Community Outreach Grant Information

The MEDARVA Foundation – which funds grants for programs and organizations that aim to enhance the health and well-being of individuals and families – is now accepting applications for its 2018 grant program.

For more than six decades, MEDARVA Healthcare has been impacting the Greater Richmond community by providing charity care and services to individuals and multiple organizations. MEDARVA believes in using its resources to assist the communities and individuals where it provides services and is dedicated to its vision of providing medical care and overall health, education and well-being across the community. This grant program is an extension of that vision.

Nonprofits and other organizations that help with access to care and target improving the health of individuals and families within the communities they serve are encouraged to apply.

Applications should include background information on the organization – including contacts, tax ID and 501(c)(3) information, the organization’s mission and a list of board members. Information regarding how the funds will be used, the population served and how success will be evaluated should also be provided.

The deadline to submit proposals is Feb. 1, 2018. The MEDARVA Education and Outreach Committee will then review all applications to determine eligibility under the MEDARVA Foundation’s general policy and operating guidelines. Applicants may be asked further questions or contacted for face-to-face interviews in March or April.

Recipients will be notified of their award in June 2018, with checks delivered the following month.
